The open-source side of Sun xVM

I realized that I mentioned Kenai.com yesterday but didn't tell you what it's for.

Over on OpenxVM.org, the efforts to open-source parts of Sun xVM have been ramping up (as we've gotten more parts that can be open-sourced). With the announcement of Sun xVM Server, they've started a new site, xvmserver.org, which unsurprisingly is devoted to information about open-source xVM Server information. There's a schedule of when their 'milestone events', like code drops, will be taking place. And Kenai.com is where the project, and the code, actually sit.

So have a look. Like they say, it takes a community to raise an open-source hypervisor.
